Interesting wording in some of these quotes. I guess FSU would suddenly make financial sense and be a good partner if the ACC implodes.

The gain is that they don't have to fly a large legal team to the ACC offices for brief viewing of the documents where they can't make copies, take notes or take pictures. They have way more freedom to analyze the documents for their case. Its an interim order that expires after 60 days. Really...

FSUs defense didn’t even allow 30 points in a game last year.

No ACC team will ever make the playoffs with 9 wins. I doubt any teams other than FSU and Clemson could even make it with 10 wins. We would need 11. It’s going to be pretty rare for the ACC to get more than one bid.

College Football is going to going to undergo massive changes in the next 5 years. Changes that are going to impact us in a negative way and not change much at all for UGA. 3-17 is pretty realistic if not optimistic. Personally, with the way things appear to be heading, I don't think we will...

You might be right on Louisville. They will have a very different team with all of their portal activity. Not really sure what to expect from them honestly. VT was playing pretty well in the second half of last season and they are ranked #1 in returning production. They are going to be a handful.

It would be impressive if we found a way to bump him from 2.8 million a year to 8-10 million a year which is now the going rate for top head coaches.

These guys are acting like master statisticians because they figured out that teams with more talent do better than teams with less talent.

Eh. Im not sure you will get what you really want if he is here for a long time.

Pretty much. I think his salary will play a part as well though. Convincing him to stay here for all of the reasons you said, and for probably less than half as much money as he could make elsewhere is a fools hope. We can't just expect his personal fandom to outrank his ability to chase bigger...

That would be the real test of how much money we are willing to invest. Key is currently the lowest paid coach in the ACC. If we doubled his salary he wouldn't be a top 25 paid coach. Meanwhile, we are looking at a 20 million dollar yearly hit due to the House settlement and programs in the Big...

OC isn't exactly a stable job unless you are at Ohio State or somewhere similar. You are always one bad QB away from being a scapegoat.

As the article states, this has to be approved by the league presidents, not the athletic directors. It may be as financially disastrous as you say. I can't say I know enough to make that determination at this point, but if it was a obvious disaster like you suggest then I struggle to see why so...

Well yeah. If it didn't take more convincing then the deal would be done and we obviously don't have all of the details yet. This is being reported by Dennis Dodd, The Athletic, Pete Thamel, and others. Like always if you believe like every other bit of news that this is also made up, that is up...

It wouldn't be much less according to the article. It would bridge the media payouts gap considerably with the SEC and B1G. The idea is that the cash infusion would keep its members competitive which would lead to larger growth in the future. The article states a potential doubling of the media...

This assumes that the SEC and B1G would go the same route, which I tend to doubt. The ACC however, probably needs to consider something along these lines.

The ACC Network was originally supposed to launch in 2017. The official launch of the network was always up in the air. I know your go to argument is always that FSU must have lied in their legal filings but i'm not sure there is much to support that here.

The SEC has more teams and less network slots to air games on. Things have to be moved around. Egg Bowl got moved also.

That doesn't make any sense. The option was tied to the launching of the ACC Network which eventually happened in 2019 and was triggered as part of the contract according to FSU in their legal filing. They wouldnt even know when that was going to happen in 2016. Im starting to wonder if the...
